My mission in life is to help people love their food and love their health at the same time - Dr. Li
Team! Today we have a true legend paving the way when it comes to using food to prevent disease and ultimately make us healthier and happier individuals! Today we are joined by Dr. William Li. He is a physician and a research scientist, the founder and leader of the Angiogenesis Foundation, a renowned speaker, and the New York Times Best Selling Author of “Eat to Beat Disease.” Dr. Li does amazing work. The Angiogenesis Foundation is the leading nonprofit organization disrupting disease through angiogenesis, the process the body uses to grow new blood vessels. Their mission is to find a common denominator behind diseases to find a single arrow that you can send through all of them at once. His groundbreaking work has impacted more than 74 diseases including cancer, diabetes, blindness, heart disease, and obesity. Dr. Li has a diverse approach to combating disease. In his work as a physician, he also developed a dedication to prevent, not only treat, disease through food. Through this dedication, he decided to focus on writing his book “Eat to Beat Disease” where he collided the worlds of life science and cuisine to learn how to achieve great health through the science of food.
In today’s episode we specifically dive into:
- How food can cure cancer
- What bioactives are and how they affect our cells
- How to understand the actual bioactives of food to know which foods yield the greatest benefits
- Bioactive chemicals
- How to understand the micronutrients in foods through their geographical location and other key factors
- How food actually solves medical problems on the cellular level
- Anticarcinogenic food
- How to make healthy food simple
Legends, I was truly blown away by the deep dive into bioactives in today’s episode. I hope you found it as fascinating as I did.
